"Could any sex toy justify spending 100 bucks? We just had to find out. This product claims to have 2 million dollars of research, the ONLY product endorsement of the big kahuna of sex - Dr. Ruth - herself, and GUARANTEES the Big O to ANY and ALL women who dare to open their pocketbooks to such extravegance. We just couldn't resist. We placed our order and waited. And waited. Unfortunately, a load of folks must've gotten the same idea, as the Eroscillator was backordered, making us wait almost 6 weeks for its arrival. Luckily for Eddy, it arrived the day after her pocket rocket finally shook its last clitoris (it gave out after 5 years of faithful service). That evening, we plugged it in and gave it a test run.

"First, the facts. The Eroscillator 2 is about 12" long and 2" in diameter. It is visually appealing and noticably sturdy (an unconditional one year guarantee is standard). The entire unit houses the motor assembly and the actual stimulation comes from a very small tip which installs by easily plugging in at one end. There are actually two flexible attachments that come standard, each with different functions (ball∪ for nipples and G-spot penetration and cluster&cockscomb for clitoral stimulation). There are other attachments available to purchase as well. For our first tryout, we decided to stick with the cluster&cockscomb and focus on the clit. Like the Magic Wand, the Eroscillator 2 is powered by electricity, so it can reach and sustain earth shaking power levels and the cord is a conveniently long 12 feet. This is not to be understated. The length of the cord enables lots of freedom to move around, which is a big plus when the heat turns up. The manual is excellent and offers a great primer for novices and experts alike. Finally, it is relatively quiet for such a large and powerful device, so we weren't concerned with waking up our little one as we ventured up the warp factors.

"The product literature takes great pains to point out that the Eroscillator is NOT a vibrator. In fact, it actually ocsillates (moves back and forth) between 2200 and 3600 oscillations per minute. Eddy definitely did not think it felt like any of her other vibrators. However, she can't actually explain the difference. On the one hand, it's more intense than the small battery vibes she's tried, but on the other it seems to penetrate deeper than the more powerful toys in her collection as well. We can only conclude that the oscillations that they claim make a difference, do indeed MAKE a big difference. I have to admit, after seeing Eddy try and enjoy so many toys, it was amazing that this one could actually stand out and deliver the goods. For me, the design of having the small tip doing the work made the Eroscillator surprisingly nimble for use during intercourse. Eddy seemed pretty comfortable maneuvering it in almost every sexual position imaginable. The large size was appealing to Eddy as it made for easy control and manipulation, especially during partner play.

"In conclusion, this toy is a must have. 100 dollars does seem like a lot of money to spend on a sex toy, but when one considers the quality, versatility, and great pleasure payoff that comes with it, the cost seems a pittance. Especially if you factor in all the money you'll save NOT purchasing other, less effective toys."
